"Young Master Cousin is back!"

As soon as Zhao Xi arrived at the door, a group of subordinates rushed over and gathered around Zhao Xi.

"What are you doing here?" Zhao Yi handed the reins to a horseman and asked puzzled.

Zhao Bo, the housekeeper of the Li Mansion, said with a smile: "The young master of the table galloped on a horse, subdued the bandits, and killed the mountain bandits, but it spread in the town, and it was said that the young master was a hero, it was Xiang Yu who was alive, and the young master and the rest of the young masters were also young heroes!" ”

Zhao Yi smiled secretly, gossip is there in any era, and he has become Xiang Yu......

"Uncle Zhao, what you said is too exaggerated, this is also the result of everyone's concerted efforts, and we don't dare to take credit."

"Young Master Cousin, don't be modest, you change your clothes first, and I'll go and talk to Madame." Uncle Zhao said with a smile.

Under the service of several maidservants, Zhao Yi changed into clean clothes after bathing, and after instructing them to wash their cloaks, he rushed to his mother's house.

"Mother, the child is back." Zhao Yi saw his mother walking nervously around the house, walked over and said.

"Yi'er, let Nian see, are you injured?" Zhao's mother came back with Zhao Xian, and hurriedly walked in front of Zhao Xian, looking at Zhao Xian.

"Mother, the child is fine, you still don't worry about the child's skills!" After Zhao Yi helped his mother sit down, he said with a smile.

In the past four years, although Zhao's mother has not grown old, she has obviously lost a lot of weight. Zhao's mother listened to Zhao Xi's words, and then she relieved her heart and said to Zhao Xi: "There are so many mountain bandits, why did you ten or so rush over?" What if something happens? ”

"The child will protect himself, besides, I'm not a child anymore, I'll take care of this kind of thing, mother, don't worry."

When Zhao's mother heard this, she was stunned, and said with a smile: "Yes, my son has grown up and is an adult!" ”

"Then mother, are you suing my father about it?" Zhao Yi looked at his mother and said.

The smile on Zhao's mother's face froze, and she looked at Zhao Xi and said, "What do you want to know about this?" Do you want to get revenge? Mother will never allow you to do this. ”

Zhao Xianzheng said: "Mother, the child does not want to take revenge now, but as a son, even the father's enemy does not know, I am a son of man in vain, whether I can take revenge is one thing, revenge or not is another thing, I can't take revenge now, it doesn't mean that I can't do it in the future, everything is foreseen and not planned will be wasted, we are in the dark, the enemy is in the light, who is sure that there will be no chance of revenge in the future?" ”

Mother Zhao looked at Zhao Yi fixedly, and suddenly found that her son was no longer the child who was lying in her arms before, thinking of her son's actions today, she seemed to understand a little.

Mother Zhao was silent for a while, as if she was reminiscing, and said quietly for a while.

"Okay, my son wants to know, then I'll tell you that your father was originally the deputy commander of the Yingwu Prince's personal guard, the Eagle Armor Guard. Twenty years ago, when Emperor Yan Kangdi was still in power, the current emperor was still a prince. Prince Yingwu originally did not have the title of Yingwu, but his young Yingwu, since the age of eighteen, he has fought with the army many times, is very brave, and makes good use of soldiers, so the ministers of civil and military affairs and the common people call him Prince Yingwu. ”

"Then why didn't Prince Yingwu ascend the throne, and his father would hide here?"

"Twenty years ago, Prince Yingwu accompanied the army to the north to conquer the Turks, at the beginning of the successive battles, the Yan army had been pushed to the middle of the grassland, Prince Yingwu designed to attack the Turkic royal court, causing a fatal attack on the Turks, at that time the Turkic army and the Yan army confronted, the Yan army had a slight advantage, so this plan was not much danger. However, just as Prince Yingwu's 30,000-strong army was about to arrive at the royal court, it fell into an encirclement, and the encircled army turned out to be the Turkic army that confronted the Yan army. How can 30,000 troops resist the encirclement and suppression of 120,000 steppe cavalry. When Prince Yingwu was surrounded, he knew that he had fallen into a huge trap, and immediately ordered the whole army to break through. ”

"Half a month of bloody battles, 30,000 troops fled in various places, there was not much left around, and Prince Yingwu was seriously injured. Prince Yingwu summoned several commanders of the Eagle Guard, asked the five deputy commanders to evacuate with some of them, and asked them to report to Emperor Yan Kang after returning to report the strangeness of his ambush, why the Turkic army suddenly retreated, but he did not get any news. ”

The five deputy commanders took hundreds of people to disguise themselves as herdsmen, and withdrew more than 100 people, but Prince Yingwu died on the battlefield. The Turks thought that Prince Yingwu was a character and returned his body. When the five deputy commanders returned to the Yan Realm, they found that the army confronting the Turkic army was still outside the country and had not withdrawn, which surprised the five of them. So, one of the five people, Lin Jing said that he was going to the Governor's Mansion to inquire, Lin Jing went, but did not ask about the situation on the front line, but brought the soldiers of the Yunzhou Governor's Mansion. Fortunately, the Eagle Armor Guards are all Predators, and there are sentinels, even so, more than 30 people from more than 100 people escaped, and the rest of the people understand that Lin Jing is no longer the original Li Jing, but they don't understand why the soldiers of the Duwei Mansion would kill themselves. ”

The four of them and the remaining more than 20 people learned that Emperor Yan Kang had died, Prince Yingwu died in battle, and the new emperor succeeded to the throne, which is now Emperor Wuxuan (non-nickname, year name). The four of them immediately understood that Prince Yingwu did not die at the hands of the Turks, but at the hands of the imperial court. ”

"The four of them didn't dare to go back from then on, so they had to flee for their lives, and your father fled to Youzhou with me, thinking that this is far away from Chang'an, and it is a border pass, so it will not attract attention. The rest of the story is to live a stable life and know the present. It stands to reason that this is the emperor's personal entourage, but now that the emperor has only been in power for three years, he is arrogant and extravagant. Yi, obsessed with beauty, entrusted all political affairs to the management of Zuo Xiang Situ Lei and Qi King Murong Cheng, and Ti Qi Si was also hung in the hands of Zuo Xiang. King Qi and Zuo fought for power and fought with each other, originally thought that twenty years had passed, and they should not have come to your father, but since ten years ago, Ti Qisi began to chase the people around Prince Yingwu to the death, and soon after, more than 20 people were arrested one by one, and your father also began to plan for the future. ”

"When you were ten years old, your father's subordinates in Youzhou were found, and your father was deeply disturbed, so he thought of Li Daitao's method, and when he went out, he found nine teenagers and a woman. In this way, after two years of calm, I finally found it. ”

"Who is Uncle Li, and that tunnel was also built by my father?" Zhao Xi asked.

"Lao Li was saved by your father when he was fighting with Prince Yingwu, Lao Li was a lieutenant when he was young, because he was at odds with Shangguan, he was almost executed by Shangguan, and was saved by your father, and later your father sent him, this person's martial arts are higher than himself. Your father made him like an eagle guard, but he refused, and I was able to escape from Chang'an thanks to his help. As for the tunnels, they already existed, but they led to the lower part of the walls, and I guess they were built during the war, and later, your father led them to the river. ”

Mother Zhao thought for a while and took out a jewelry box from the house, ripped open the cover on the inside of the lid of the jewelry box, took out a piece of hard paper from it and said: "The night we escaped, your father handed it over to me, saying that it will be handed over to you when you grow up in the future, and there should be some special things in it, and you should use it properly." ”

When Zhao Xi saw it, it turned out to be a map, and it was drawn fifty miles north of Le County, that is, more than twenty miles northeast of the town.

Later, Zhao's mother told the situation of that night, and learned that Zhao Yu and Mrs. Xu both died for their own family, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Zhao Yi put away the map and thought to himself: "There should be a reason why this map will be hunted down after such a while, how can a group of people who can't affect the overall situation at all attract crazy hunting?" Alas! I'll talk about that later. ”

After chatting with his mother for a while, Zhao Xi left his mother's courtyard, rode on a washed white horse, and rushed to the back mountain.

"Big brother is here!" The sharp-eyed Zhao Jie shouted from afar.

Zhao Yi dismounted and came to the front of everyone, and saw that the brothers had already finished washing and were roasting a few rabbits.

"Cousin, you're not hurt, are you?" Li'er glanced at Zhao Yi carefully and asked.

Zhao Yi smiled and said, "These guys are fine, how can I have anything, oh, by the way, I will wash the cloak you gave me." ”

"Cousin, Sister Li'er only asked if you were injured, why did you say your cloak?" Xin'er said quirkily.

Zhao Yi suddenly blushed.

"Hahaha!"

The brothers burst into laughter.
